OBAMANATION
I remember when CNN was referred to as the “Clinton News Networkâ€. For many years the Left have enjoyed receiving the news with their media pushing the Left agenda. Fox News Network is and should be able to do their reporting catering to the Right. Republicans and Conservatives don’t want to hear CNN’s skewed and favored reporting that constantly lauds and praises Obama’s every move and decision. We enjoy the ability and right to be critical of our leaders in this country. That’s my interpretation of “Fair and Balancedâ€. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, they all praise this president as if everything he does is without flaw and any person or network who should criticize or demand answers with this administration is an “extremist†or “not a real news networkâ€. The fact that this President has even mocked Fox for their reporting is incorrigible. For instance, he and his administration lack the courage to answer questions which Fox News has asked regarding Social/National Healthcare: Who and how will pay for it and what is the cost? This administration is furious that Fox demand that American’s have a right to know and Obama simply won’t answer or address those questions. Of course we all know the answer; higher taxes, higher taxes for everyone. That’s the Democrats way for paying for anything; throwing someone else’s money at a problem is the answer. And, in Obama’s world, the capitalists who have earned more money must bear the burden for covering the cost of those who have less. Not less government spending and wasting. Spreading the money of the wealthiest among the poorest and then simply printing money which we don’t have will cure all of America’s ills. Right?
As far as the “opinion pieces†on Fox; give me a break! I watch them with a grain of salt as mostly entertainment. They are, after all, opinion pieces. O’Reilly, Hannity, Beck; although all make valid points and even intriguing challenges, they are not reporters. They simply share their views in an entertaining, unique and over the top tendency. Sure, they’re very critical of this administration and have every right to voice their collective disgust. As much as the Left may despise them, Beck, Hannity and O’Reilly all check facts and are true Patriots concerned for the state of affairs in our country. In fact, it’s their diligent and exhausting checking of facts and exposing truths that the Left media would rather hide from the masses that anger their opponents. Remember, fair and balanced, the Left pushes their agenda, Fox has the right to cater and report to the Right audience. Funny how this whole Freedom of Speech thing works, isn’t? Open debate, expressing disgust and even criticizing the powers that be is the cornerstone of our freedom in this country. Obama should be ashamed of himself, but, he has his own definition of freedom: everyone is free to agree with him and his administration or get bullied and threatened.
Remember this: this president promised that his administration would conduct business with greater transparency and higher standards than any other president has ever done, just ask his Czars…..Fox is doing their job in questioning, criticizing and demanding answers from this administration. We, as Americans need to constantly and vigilantly put our elected leaders under a microscope and make sure their decisions are best for our country and countrymen. Bush sure was put through the media shredder during his administration. Obama should be off limits? Oh, wait, I forgot, everything is Bush’s fault anyway; that’s the mantra of this administration. They’ll never own up to their short comings and mistakes. President Bush will forever be Obama’s, Pelosi’s and Biden’s scapegoat.
These are the facts: This administration has control of our financial bloodline; Wall Street and banks. Now they dictate; notice the word: DICTATE, the salaries of executives. They own GM…you all know that, correct? They OWN General Motors. And here is an example of their total stupidity and inability to effectively and even slightly try to save GM (which they have no intention of relinquishing ownership of) Remember “Cash for Clunkers� Sounded great, didn’t: trade in your “clunker†and receive a rebate or discount of $3,500.00-$4,500.00 towards a new vehicle. Of course, the government decided which cars qualified as clunkers and which cars were elected as fuel efficient or Earth Friendly or whatever by the criteria of their choosing for trade-ins. Who benefitted from this? This really could have been a good idea; profitable for many people if it was run by the private sector. Many consumers made out; thousands now drive nice, new vehicles with great warranties, etc. Ford did well, they had some great inventory to provide; as did Honda, Toyota, Lexus, Volkswagen, Hyundai, BMW, Nissan, Saab, etc. You know who suffered terribly from this fiasco? GM! Why? Their factories had been shut down for nine months! They had little inventory to begin with, which when those cars did sell, they had no time to produce more!!! Most GM lots are now stuck with $35,000-$50,000 SUVs and Crossovers and Pickup Trucks. Now, these “clunkers†were, per the contract of the Cash for Clunkers campaign, to be destroyed. Period. The government dictated that these “clunkers†were to be taken to a junk yard and crushed and boxed into waste. Many of those cars were very drivable, newer, safe cars that had many more years and miles on them. They could have been resold to low income families, or donated to charities, churches, etc. Even the spare parts that could have been resold to keep other, older cars on the road (starters, alternators, doors, mirrors, fuel pumps, wheels, seats, windows, glass, transmissions, oil pans, batteries, etc., etc., etc) I understand the purpose of the program was to remove non fuel efficient vehicles off the roads, but not everybody can afford new cars and some keep their vehicles for many years and rely on spare parts from junk yards. This program had no benefit to GM and millions of dollars from the donation/resale of these clunkers and the spare part business was lost. In other words, the government ruined what could have been a great boost to GM and in the process lost millions of potential revenue from the used/spare parts industry. Now he, Obama and this administration, wants to control healthcare? Also, there’s a news outlet that criticizes and questions and doesn’t push their agenda….Well, Obama can’t have that, Fox must be shut down. Just ask his Czars. No one sees a pattern? Does the name Chavez scare anyone? Not the Hollywood Left, who swoon over him. They honestly wish our current president would act more like Chavez. Don’t worry, he’s getting there. Banks (money), corporations (GM) and now he is trying to control the media (Fox News). No one sees a pattern? Conservatives are labeled as “crazy†and “extremist†when we say and see that this president has a Socialism Agenda. What’s sad, and most certainly scary, is it’s happening right in front of our eyes!!! Ask yourselves this, all you who criticize Fox: Look back on all of the president’s promises he said he would do if elected, and count the number of one’s he fallen through with. How transparent and forthright has this regime been with the American public? Why is he so fearful of honest debate, discussion, questions and criticism? For seven years our Nation was fearful of another attack from a foreign, distant enemy hell-bent on destroying our freedoms and rights that so many have given their souls to ensure and protect. What about a domestic enemy, with an agenda, an overwhelming coverage of media to support said agenda and the power to slowly erode and negate those freedoms and rights? ……I am neither crazy nor an extremist. I am the new minority (40 year old, Caucasian, Male, Christian, Capitalist Conservative) who is slowly watching our country becoming a Socialist Society. Obama chanted “change†in his campaign and many people were ready for a different leader, a different administration, I understand that. However, this type of change will adversely affect the fabric of our great Nation. I hope when all of the damage is done and over, it won’t be too late for our new leader in 2012 to undo the carnage Obama has already brought to our country. Fox News, keep up the fine work!
